Ask Dr. Denisse
Why would a dentist do Botox? Botox is not only used to reduce lines and wrinkles. It is the first and only medication used to prevent headaches and treat TMJ. One out of every 4 patients we see has TMJ problems. Most patients with TMJ grind their teeth at night subconsciously while they are sleeping and even more clench their teeth throughout the day. Heavy grinding and clenching affects the TMJ and causes muscle pain and aching around the face and head. Before Botox, the only treatment to help TMJ and muscle pain were splints and night-guards. If the pain worsened, the next option was surgery. But now with Botox, the muscles of the face can be treated in a quick appointment. The results I've seen are miraculous and have improved my patient's quality of life. They are not waking up with headaches, not feeling tight around the face and are feeling relaxed and relieved.

The Golden Angel By Bob Cox
During my childhood and as a young adult, I wasted a lot of time and energy taking on every battle that came my way. Either I would confront the 'wrongdoer' that disrespected me by directly confronting them or indirectly confronting them by coming up with clever things I could have said or done long after the deed was done. As terrible as a given event might have been, the incessant thoughts of 'What I could have done' plagued me like a scratch that makes a record album skip. The after-effects of my chronic obsessions were usually ten times worse than the actual incident! As I've grown older, I've learned the value of serenity and choosing my battles carefully while at the same time being more considerate, thoughtful and courteous to others so I don't inadvertently start a battle that everyone loses! If you truly want to make a positive difference in the world, the fine art of choosing your battles wisely is an important lesson to practice. Why, because we are all born with a limited amount of time, energy and resources. If you really want to affect a positive change in the world, choose
something you're passionate about and then go for it. On the other hand, as powerful as this practice can be, there is an even greater lesson a rare few will learn. That is when the battle chooses you. Last month, the public was inundated with news about the tragic shooting death of Wendy Hall-Onkle, the founder of Alex Onkle Financial Support Foundation. When her sister Shauna received the news, she was devastated and heartbroken. Shauna and Wendy were extremely close and their bond was unbreakable. The love they felt for one another was enduring and unconditional. Shauna wondered to herself and aloud why such a senseless tragedy occurred. Then one day, while walking along the beach, a miracle happened…she got her answer. "Ever since my sister Wendy was murdered, I had been in a very dark spot and differing ranges of emotions poured through my being. I wasn't able to get a really good grasp on things and was barely making it. Day to day, just getting out was a difficult struggle and last week, after another workday, I decided that I needed to get a little exercise. I had been immobile for a few weeks, which isn't my normal behavior. Generally, I work out every day but I hadn't been doing the things to take care of myself like normal. I told my son Zack I was going to take a walk along the beach because I just wanted to get some clarity and Wendy was definitely heavy on my mind as the sadness was pouring through me. As I was walking, the sky was blue above the ocean. When I got to the corner of the walkway, I smelled a distinct and heavy fragrance of jasmine and rosemary. As I turned around the corner, it was like I walked into another world as there was gold everywhere. The sky was gold, the water was gold; everything was gold. Even the window panes on people's houses were reflecting gold. As I walked up towards the beach, I noticed it was just breathtaking – there were beams of light everywhere. I got this feeling as I was approaching it that I was literally being pulled towards it and felt my sister's presence. At one point, I felt her son's (Alex-who passed away) presence. All the sadness that I was carrying, which was a lot, had subsided and I had a great feeling of peace, happiness and complete contentment. People were standing around everywhere, taking pictures and talking about the heart-shaped opening in the clouds. I Continues on page 10

Art: Buds, Blossoms, Blooms... There's a story that begins with a women who lived alone in a dark and dingy house. A girl from down the street gives her a rose. She places the rose in a vase on her coffee table. It adds such a brightness that she removes all the magazines and clutter around it... Then she decides to dust for the first time in a long time. That prompted her to do more cleaning around the room, open the drapes and soon her house was cleaner, brighter and transformed from a house to a home. ART in our community has much the same affect. One singular addition of art can have a ripple effect that will transform a community from dark and dingy to bright and inviting.

Living His Dream: Je By Bob Cox
A: I am not taking all the credit. God is with me and if it wasn't for Him, I wouldn't be where I am today. I think the only thing really stopping people is themselves, because to me there are no limits to what I can do. That is just what I think personally. If you want something, you can get it. I tell my kids anything that the mind can believe it can achieve.
When I came to this country, I was 23 years old and I just graduated from a university in Mexico. The way things are in Mexico is so different than here because down there you need money to get good jobs and since I came from a very poor family, it was very hard for me to find a good job. I never thought Q: Well, you definitely have the passion and that I was going to come here to be honest with you, spark that it takes to be successful in life. What but I did with the idea that coming to this country, motivated you to come to America and go for no matter what I was going to succeed. It was hard, your dream? but with God on my side, being persistent and knowA: To be honest with you, I wanted to do this and ing what I wanted in life helped make things easier.

I was a single guy, but I knew that my mom and years I was able to accomplish the goals that I was my dad gave a lot to make me into the person that I am today and committed to accomplish… and here I am. To me, as a person I really owe it to them, so I just really wanted to do something for and human being, the most important thing in life is my family, them. Over the years I have been able to help out. my kids, my wife, and all I want to do is build them up, set them up, guide them, and have them be good and independent people Q: You've mentioned how grateful you are to be in in life. So far, it's been working. I have 4 beautiful kids and they America because you've received so many blessings, but are studying to go to college.

Where did you get the Why? I don't know, but I realized I was very insecure and I have a courage to take that leap of faith and go for it? lot of fear in my soul and I didn't want to be that person. I knew deep inside there was the Chewy getting ready to be set free and I worked a lot on setting myself free. I taught myself by reading a lot of books and good stories to motivate me and be the person I wanted to be. Being persistent, I was able to do that. The Chewy you see today is the Chewy that wanted to come out and live this wonderful life! Q: When you came here to United States you started as a dishwasher. Is that correct? A: Yeah and it was funny, because when I came to this country, I didn't know anything about this life but for some reason I was able to get a job at Huey's Diner. I started off doing dishes and don't get me wrong, a job's a job, but I thought I deserved better, so I did dishes at night and then got up early in the morning to go to school and over the years I was able to learn the language. I still have a strong accent but the main thing is to be able to communicate with people and I am able to do it. So I went to school

esus (Chewy) Chavez and then from that point, I was able to get up to the position of assistant manager in one and a half years. It was because I knew what I wanted. It wasn't easy, but I think knowing what you want is the most important thing in life. Q: Did you have any other experience in the restaurant industry before opening Chewy's? A: Yes, and I feel extremely grateful to have managed the cafeteria at Campbell's Soup for 8 years and continue to work with Sutter Physicians Services. I run the whole cafeteria on their premises and so far it's been great.
Chewy's was remodeled to add beauty and comfort.
Q: Can you tell us a little bit about your restaurant and what makes it so special? A: Our food is fresh, just like homemade. When you come in to Chewy's, we're going to treat you with respect and do everything possible to make a nice dining experience. I just want people to know that we're here and we would appreciate their business. I am 100% sure that every time my customers come, they will get the best customer service they can get anywhere. I want to make a difference. Q: Your vision is to serve great tasting Mexican and American food. How did you come up with this idea? A: Since I've been in the food industry for a long time running cafeterias, deep inside I wanted to be open to the public and at the same time I wanted to be different from everybody else. When I came up with the idea of offering both American and Mexican food, I wanted my customers to have more options.
Q: I love your barbeque bacon cheeseburgers! What's your secret to making such tasty hamburgers? A: We use real Angus beef, our ingredients are all fresh and our buns are baked locally every day. As far as the sandwiches and hamburgers I offer, my customers have the option to choose whole wheat hamburger buns. When people walk into the restaurant, the first thing they will see is the tortilla press and if they want a burrito, as soon they come up to the register, we make the tortilla fresh. It's something that many of our new customers have never seen before, so it's pretty cool.
Q: You have a really beautiful dining area and it's very comfortable too. I really like the booths. Did you remodel before opening? A: Yes. I just wanted a nice and clean place for my customers. So far, I have been getting many compliments. Q: How did you get the nickname Chewy? A: Well, the nickname is something I was born with. Most of the people in Mexico with the name Jesus have that nickname. Why? I don't even know. That is how I got my name though.
Q: Speaking of options, do you offer your customers healthy dining choices? A: Yes! We have healthy food options. We also have traditional dining options, so everyone will be satisfied. If you look at our breakfast menu, you can substitute potatoes for healthier options like tomatoes and cottage cheese. We also have gluten free bread. For people who are watching their cholesterol, we serve egg whites. With our burritos, people can substitute flour tortillas with whole wheat tortillas. As for the ingredients, you can choose refried beans, pinto beans or black beans. We have Spanish rice, brown rice and house rice, which is my own recipe and people like it very much!

The Golden Angel Continued from page 4
saw a great big beam of light pouring through the clouds like in the movie The Lion King and it was reflecting off the ocean and it was in the distinct shape of a heart. It was then that I realized that this was a gift from my sister. Shortly before she died, she had posted a picture on Facebook where there were two tire tracks right in front of her car and they made the shape of two hearts intertwined. She had made a comment that the two hearts was a sign from her son that it was their hearts and they would be together soon. That was a message that Wendy knew that I would recognize because I saw the tire tracks picture again and again all over Facebook the day she died. In that moment, I felt a complete sense of healing, peacefulness and hope. I no longer felt like she was leaving me alone in this world to deal with things. As I looked up, I noticed that people were smiling at me. One couple asked me to take their picture and after I did, the gal asked me if I knew what the sunset was for. I said yeah, I think I do know. She asked me if somebody had died recently and I said yes, my sister was murdered. She said, yeah I know, I'm sorry for your loss and she smiled at me with a really kind heart. I handed her camera back and she told me to have a good day. As I started to walk back, I felt this sense of sadness because my back was towards the sun and I started to cry and said please don't leave me. Within a few seconds, I felt the presence of Wendy and Alex walking with me as if they were holding my hands. As the sun began to set, the sky color changed from red to light purple, which is the same exact color of her logo ribbon for the cancer awareness (DSRCT). The feeling that if I walked away from that sunset that I had to say goodbye had left me because I realized that this wasn't goodbye. It was like she was saying I'll be right here and I'll see you in a few years. When I came home, I felt completely lifted from all the anger, pain and hatred that I had in my heart and I realized that I had to do something about the situation that these

parents are in with their children. It became apparent to me that life is about helping and healing other people and Wendy figured that out before she died. Ever since that day, there have been amazingly beautiful sunsets and I'm feeling more positive and productive every day." The Alex Onkle Financial Support Foundation was founded by Wendy Hall-Onkle (a.k.a. the Golden Angel) to help financially support families affected with childhood cancer. Wendy and Alex chose a red and purple ribbon for the logo with gold letters, the same colors that Shauna witnessed that magical evening. While Alex was here, one of his dying wishes was to start a foundation for the parents of children who have cancer, so that parents could stay home with their kids when they were dying. All he wanted was his mom and dad there as he went on to the next place. He had told Wendy a day or two before he died that God had came to him while he was asleep and told him that He was waiting for him and he told his mom that he would have to go soon. According to Shauna, Alex was a very old soul and full of life. Everyone who spent 5 minutes with him would be inspired. He was labeled Alex the Superhero because in the midst of unimaginable pain, he reached out to others and gave back. When Alex was just 4 years old, he was diagnosed with a rare aggressive cancer in July 2010 called Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor (DSRCT). After several excruciating months of radiation and chemotherapy, Alex made the active decision to stop the treatments because he wanted better quality for the rest of his life. Wendy lost her son Alex on April 20, 2013 after a 33 month fight at the age of 7. The battle has chosen Shauna and her family and friends could not be any prouder. Wisdom, courage and an inspired conviction will help her pick up where Wendy left off. According to Shauna, "Wendy's strength after Alex passed on has inspired hundreds of people and my hope is that she is able, through me and others to inspire thousands of people. That's what my goal is, to inspire thousands of people to care for and protect the people that cannot protect themselves."

Car Tech Talk
Double Check Your Factory Warranty By Walter Ford Some auto repair shops will perform work on cars that are still under factory warranty, but you should proceed with caution. Why? We recently had a customer come in who had some timing chain work done for around $2,700. She became a customer of ours after she became suspicious of the previous shop she had been going to. One day, I had mentioned that there were some things that were recalls that we may want to do, now that we started taking care of her car. When I mentioned the timing chain, she said just had that done by another shop and she paid $2,700 for it. Come to find out, this was covered under her warranty! The shop owner who ran a specialty repair shop SHOULD have known about it. Here's a good rule of thumb when you're wondering about your warranty coverage. If you have a car that's less than 7 years of age, it doesn't hurt to call the manufacturer to see if any proposed repair is covered under your warranty. Most people don't know that some components of an engine or a car actually carry, by federal mandate, a warranty much longer than what the manufacturer's normal factory warranty is. Major emissions components carry an 8 year 80,000 mile warranty. So, they may see that they have a problem with a certain component of a car and end up covering it under warranty. If you have any questions or doubts, don't be afraid to ask!
12 GO FOR IT April 2014
But don't just limit this question to your repair shop. Get a second opinion. We make it a priority to know about these things as much as possible. For example, if we have a car that comes in that was built in 2008 that has 70,000 something miles on it and it needs major engine work, I'm going to go back to the manufacturer and say, "Hey, this is a little out of the ordinary, is this something you will cover?" If that doesn't work, a quick web search will turn up the truth. We've also had people come to us and say, "I need to replace this timing chain and I heard it was covered under warranty." From there, we can council them on what to do. I don't think most people know that there could be things that are covered under a service bulletin that go beyond the standard warranty, especially if it's a defect in the car's design. If a component in your car breaks, like the door handle, if it is still under warranty, the manufacturer will have to fix it. If it is out of warranty, they're not going to fix it. But, if they find that a whole bunch of them are breaking, and they're all breaking the same way, it may become clear to them that there's a defect in the design and they will sell an updated component. This actually happened with the Mini Cooper power steering pumps. When you replace a Mini Cooper pump, you get the updated design.

Market report
Hopes that Ladbrokes Coral was the subject of a renewed takeover attempt from rival GVC caused shares in the bookie battling the tough high street environment and incoming regulatory headwinds to spike yesterday.
Ladbrokes jumped 2.3pc in intraday trading before quickly receding as traders realised that the two parties were at loggerheads over GVC's valuation of the bookie.
The bid from the online gaming giant, which is thought to have been received over the summer, arrived as earnings at bookmakers including Ladbrokes come under threat from the Government's triennial review of the gambling sector. An agreement of the bookie's valuation is unlikely to be settled until the impact of the review on Ladbrokes has been determined.
Analysts believe that the hung parliament has increased the odds that maximum stakes on fixed-odds betting terminals, which have been dubbed the "crack cocaine" of the gambling industry, will be slashed by regulators with Ladbrokes one of the most exposed London-listed stocks. With expectations quickly dwindling that the bookie would be the latest in the long string of GVC's acquisitions, shares closed 0.2p lower at 119.8p.
Elsewhere, Tesco and J Sainsbury were pulled in different directions by Kantar Worldpanel's latest report on the battle to cling on to market share among the Big Four supermarkets.
After outstripping its rivals' sales, Dave Lewis-led Tesco jumped to the top of the blue-chip leaderboard, gaining 7.3p to 184.2p, while the biggest London-listed laggard in the fresh figures, J Sainsbury, underperformed the wider market to finish just 0.1p higher at 237.7p.
The overall FTSE 100 snapped its losing streak to finish 62.86 points higher at 7,381.74, a 0.9pc rebound, as risk aversion faded on the markets. Given the all-clear by tentative gains overnight in the US and Asia and aided by the dollar's advances on the pound and euro, European equities rallied into positive territory with the DAX and CAC 40 jumping 1.4pc and 0.9pc, respectively.
Meanwhile, the triple whammy of a scrapped dividend, chief executive departure and a full-year loss forecast sent doorstep lender Provident Financial sliding a colossal £11.56 to 589.5p, a 66pc tumble.
Star fund manager Neil Woodford was one of the biggest casualties from the huge drop and his day went from bad to worse as he saw two of his other picks, roadside rescuer AA and intellectual property group Allied Minds, slump 11.4p to 174.1p and 23.5p to 127.8p, respectively.
Finally, Shire rebounded 3.1pc following Monday's 4pc fall on the announcement that chief financial officer Jeff Poulton will soon depart. The pharma firm's chief executive Flemming Ornskov shored up the ship yesterday by buying just over £300,000 worth of shares. Shire rose 112p to £37.25.
Markets wrap: FTSE 100 snaps losing streak; pound drifts lower against stronger dollar
Global stock markets have rebounded sharply today as the risk aversion dogging equities faded away. With the dollar also advancing on the pound, the FTSE 100 snapped a three-day losing streak to finish 0.9pc higher thanks to a broad based rally.
The pick of the movements in London has been doorstep lender Provident Financial's incredible 66pc plummet after the triple whammy of a scrapped dividend, chief executive departure and full-year loss forecast. Elsewhere Tesco outstripping its rivals in the latest supermarket sales data lifted its shares 4.1pc while mining stocks were buoyed by robust base metal prices with copper rising to a three-year high.
On the currency markets, data from the ONS showing that the UK posted its first July surplus since 2002 and CBI figures indicating a strengthening manufacturing sector couldn't stop the pound drifting lower against a stronger dollar today. While sterling remains flat against the euro, it is finishing the day 0.6pc down against the greenback, trading at $1.2837.
Brent crude stabilises around $52 per barrel after OPEC meeting fails to impress traders
Brent crude has stabilised around the $52 per barrel mark this afternoon after the lack of major news from yesterday's OPEC meeting failed to impress traders, causing the price drift downwards once again.
CMC Markets analyst David Madden said this on OPEC's dwindling reputation in the oil market:
"The oil minister of Kuwait, Essam al-Marzouq stated they will talk about the possibility of extending the production cut beyond the end of March 2018. The oil cartel should not be ignored, but the group does not have the creditability it once did, as traders know they often say one thing, and do another."
Oil has stoked a bit of movement on the stock market as well today. London-listed producer Cairn Energy jumped 3.6pc today after it upped its recoverable reserves estimate at its offshore SNE field in Senegal from 473m barrels to 563m while Petrofac popped 2.1pc after it sold a 50pc stake in the Pánuco oil field to Schlumberger.
FTSE 100 rebounds into positive territory as risk aversion retreats
Markets are now closed in Europe and the FTSE 100 has rebounded into positive territory today, rallying 0.9pc, as risk aversion retreated on global stock markets. A quick round-up of today's action and the market report will follow shortly...
US markets lifted by fresh hopes of tax reform
Fresh hopes of US tax reforms are helping equities gain stateside this afternoon, according to IG's chief market analyst Chris Beauchamp.
He said this on today's play:
"One day down, one day up, and so on. This is the theme of August, with markets unable so far to establish a direction and stick with it. After losses yesterday the buyers have come back in, with fresh hope of moves on US tax reform apparently providing the catalyst for gains.
"Warm words from Senate leader McConnell on the debt ceiling are also helping to boost confidence. Perhaps this time we will see stock markets extend their gains into a second day; optimism surrounding Jackson Hole and potential comments on monetary policy from the dynamic duo of Draghi and Yellen could see Wednesday post a positive session as well."
Hostelworld back in the black as holidaymakers book by app
Travel bookings website Hostelworld swung back to profit in the first half of the year, helped by more holidaymakers booking shorter trips via their mobile phones.
The company said that even though the price of accommodation had risen, partly because of the fall in the value of sterling, it had seen the number of bookings rise by 11pc to 3.9m.
Chief executive Feargal Mooney said the number of nights per booking had dropped but that this had been balanced by the shift to mobile, which made up half of reservations in the six months to June 30.
Mobile customers "transact more frequently than other customers", Mr Mooney said, which had been an important factor in helping the company's adjusted profits, pushing them up 27pc to €12.9m (£11.8m).

Tech firms and copper miners lift US indices
After having a poor session yesterday, tech shares are helping to lift US indices this afternoon with the tech-heavy Nasdaq rebounding 0.9pc shortly after the opening bell in New York.
As in London, the mining stocks are also leading the way across the Atlantic with copper hitting a three-year high on hopes of stronger demand.
Over here, that rise has led to copper miner KAZ Minerals popping nearly 7pc on the FTSE 250 while blue-chip Antofagasta has risen 2.5pc with its strong interim results also giving the Chile-based firm a helping hand.
Antofagasta on a roll as copper prices surge
Chile-based miner Antofagasta believes copper's good run is set to continue as it reported a jump in profits and a hiked dividend.
Iván Arriagada, chief executive, said the "outlook is favourable", as copper expects to be in long-term demand for electrical wiring in houses, cars, and gadgets.
"We're positive on where the copper market is going," he said. "There will be volatility but the price is going in the right direction."

US markets preview
The stronger dollar following "unfavourable" economics data in Europe has helped to lift equities today, argues Henry Croft, research analyst at Accendo Markets.
He added:
"European equities are nicely positive this afternoon as a US dollar recovery aids the plethora of stocks across the region with foreign earnings.
"The rally for the global reserve currency follows a morning of unfavourable European macroeconomic data; a disappointing ZEW expectations survey print for Eurozone powerhouse Germany and an ominous forecast from the UK's ONS that public borrowing will deepen have hurt the Euro and Sterling, respectively."
The quieter White House helped US stock indices snap their losing streak yesterday with European markets today taking their cue from the positive session over the Atlantic. US stock futures are pointing to a positive start there as well.
Spreadex analyst Connor Campbell provided this preview of this afternoon's action over in the US:
"Having briefly dipped below 21600 during yesterday's trading the US index managed to recover by the end of the session, leaving it in line to re-cross 21700 with a 40 point rise after the bell.
"There isn't a lot for the Dow to deal with this afternoon, so as long as the macro-issues that have plagued the markets in recent weeks remain in the background there isn't much to disrupt its recovery."
Housebuilder Persimmon's profits soar by 30pc
FTSE 100 housebuilder Persimmon has reported a 30pc jump in profits in the first half of the year as it avoided the effects of a slowdown in the housing market.
Persimmon's pre-tax profits rose 30pc to £457.5m in the six months ended June 30, while revenues were up 12pc to £1.66bn.
It built 556 new homes in the period, an increase in completions of 8pc to a total 7,794, as it made the business more efficient. Its average selling price rose 4pc to £213,262.
"The market remains confident," said chief executive Jeff Fairburn. "Customer interest in our developments remains strong with encouraging levels of interest through both our websites and our sales outlets as we trade through the quieter summer weeks.
Shares nudged up 1pc following the results.

Star fund manager Neil Woodford's day is going from bad to worse as, in addition to the huge 74pc fall at doorstep lender Provident Financial, his stakes in AA and Allied Minds are also taking a battering today.
The roadside rescuer is anchored to bottom of the FTSE 250 scoreboard, slipping 4.4pc, while intellectual property group Allied Minds has dived 8.1pc.
BHS owner Dominic Chappell prosecuted by Pensions Regulator
Dominic Chappell, the former bankrupt who bought BHS for £1, is to be prosecuted by The Pensions Regulator for failing to provide information related to his purchase of the now defunct retailer.
Mr Chappell has been summoned to appear at Brighton Magistrates Court on September 20 to face three charges of neglecting or refusing to provide information and documents without a reasonable excuse.
The Pensions Regulator is still pursuing Mr Chappell over the collapse of BHS, which left 20,000 BHS pensioners facing a pay cut and created 11,000 redundancies, after agreeing a £363m with Sir Philip Green to plug the retailer's deficit.

CBI manufacturing survey reaction: Can strong surveys translate to better output data?
Analysts are pointing out that today's robust CBI figures should be taken with a pinch of salt given that recently the hard output data has strayed from the trend shown in surveys such as today's.
Pantheon Macro commented that the survey's size and the way the data is collated could be to blame for the disparity:
"It's possible that the survey's small sample size of just 432 manufacturers is to blame for its inaccuracy. The CBI's measure of orders also is derived from the number of manufacturers reporting if orders are above or below "normal", which is not clearly defined.
"Firms also are asked to report order volumes, but we suspect that many think in terms of revenues, which in many cases have been boosted automatically by sterling's depreciation.
The EY ITEM Club's chief economic advisor Howard Archer gave his thoughts on the sector's outlook:
"The outlook for manufacturing appears mixed with a promising export environment countered by challenging domestic conditions.
"On the positive side, a very competitive pound and improved global demand should buoy UK manufacturers competing in foreign markets. The weakened pound could also encourage some companies to switch to domestic sources for supplies, which could help manufacturers of intermediate products."
Lunchtime update: Provident Financial plunges 73pc as stock markets rebound
Provident Financial's colossal 73pc nosedive on the FTSE 100 this morning has made all the headlines but can't stop the blue-chip index rebounding firmly into positive territory.
The doorstep lender was ruthlessly punished after its latest interim results contained the triple whammy of a scrapped dividend, chief executive departure and shock forecast of a full-year loss.
At the other end, Tesco has jumped 3.5pc after its sale growth outstripped its UK rivals as budget supermarkets Aldi and Lidl continue to close the gap while mining heavyweight BHP Billiton has advanced 3pc following its full-year results, in which it bowed to pressure from activist investor Elliott Advisors and announced the sale of its US shale assets.
Despite the two UK economic releases this morning beating expectations, the pound has dipped 0.3pc against the dollar, trading at $1.2827, but remains flat against the euro. Analysts are pinning this morning's fall on Brexit-related jitters with EU chief Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier's goading tweets overnight ratcheting up the tension further at the negotiating table.
Here's the current state of play in Europe:
FTSE 100: +0.66pc
DAX: +0.61pc
CAC 40: +0.44pc
IBEX: +0.25pc
UK manufacturing demand remained strong in August, says CBI
Both total order books and export order books were strong in August. #CBI_ITShttps://t.co/m53aToSWoQpic.twitter.com/7r9RU8oolU— CBI Economics (@CBI_Economics) August 22, 2017
Demand for UK manufacturing beat expectations in August, according to the CBI's latest industrial trends survey, with order books remaining strong thanks to exporters still feeling the benefit from a lower pound.
Some 30pc of manufacturers reported that order books were above normal while 17pc said they were below below, leaving a balance of +13pc, above expectations of a +8pc reading. The CBI added that strong and broad based output growth is expected to continue into the next quarter.
Anna Leach, CBI Head of Economic Intelligence, said:
"After a brief pause last month, expectations for selling prices have rebounded, indicating that the squeeze on consumers is set to persist. We expect CPI (Consumer Price Index) to top out at around 3% towards the end of this year and remain close to that level during 2018, as the effect of the weak pound continues to feed through."
BHS' former owner Dominic Chappell to be prosecuted
BHS' former owner Dominic Chappell will be prosecuted by The Pensions Regulator for failing to provide information requested during its investigation into the sale of the closed retailer.
The former bankrupt bought BHS for £1 in 2015 before it collapsed into administration in April 2016, leaving behind a £571m pension deficit.
The Pensions Regulator said this in its statement just a few moments ago:
TPR is prosecuting Mr Chappell for failing to comply with three notices issued under Section 72 of the Pensions Act 2004. The notices requiring information were issued to Mr Chappell on 26 April 2016, 13 May 2016 and 20 February 2017.
He has been summonsed to appear at Brighton Magistrates' Court on 20 September 2017 to face three charges of neglecting or refusing to provide information and documents, without a reasonable excuse, when required to do so under section 72 of the Pensions Act 2004, contrary to section 77(1) of that Act."
Mike Ashley increases Debenhams stake to more than 20pc
Sports Direct boss Mike Ashley has increased his stake in Debenhams to more than 20pc.
In a statement to the stock market, Debenhams said Mr Ashley now holds 21pc of shares, giving him more than 10pc of voting rights in the company.
Sports Direct's interest in Debenhams was first revealed in early 2014 and he has been steadily increasing his stake this year.
The increase of its holdings in the struggling department store chain follows Mr Ashley's decision to snap up a stake of more than 25pc in video game retailer Game Digital last month.

FTSE 100 holds gains; Provident on course for lowest share price since 2000
The FTSE 100 has held on to today's rebound thanks to the waning risk-off mood with European indices lifted by some bargain hunting this morning, according to CMC Markets analyst David Madden.
He commented:
"Traders adopt a risk-on strategy this morning even though the standoff between the US and North Korea is still bubbling away in the background.
"The shakedown in European equity markets yesterday has encouraged bargain hunting today. European indices have been in decline for a few months now, and today's move higher hasn't changed the outlook.
Some bargain buys may be lifting the blue-chip indices in Europe but I'm not sure the cut price sale on Provident Financial is enticing many buyers. The stock is now on course to close at its lowest share price since 2000.

Public sector borrowing reaction: Pound continues drift downwards; slowing tax receipts highlight economy's fragility
Today's public sector net borrowing surplus hasn't been able to shift the momentum on the currency markets with the pound continuing to drift downwards against the dollar. It's currently trading at $1.2841, close to a one-month low against the greenback.
Pantheon Macro commented that today's borrowing figures are not a sign that the economy is in rude health and that instead slowing growth in tax receipts highlights the economy's fragility.
Its UK economist Samuel Tombs explained:
"Growth in receipts will slow sharply at the end of this fiscal year, because the bumper batch of SA receipts collected in January and February 2017, due to prior tax changes, will not be repeated.
"The OBR also likely will revise down its very optimistic forecasts for wage growth in the Autumn Budget, boosting the borrowing forecast in future years. As such, we continue to doubt that the Chancellor will pare back the fiscal consolidation planned for the coming years."
Here's what's driven the change in UK public sector borrowing so far this financial year. pic.twitter.com/d46wPMtsax— Rupert Seggins (@Rupert_Seggins) August 22, 2017
Public sector borrowing reaction: Due to one-off factors
Today's much improved borrowing figures were mainly "due to one-off factors", according to Capital Economics' UK economist Ruth Gregory.
Economists had forecast a £1bn deficit in today's figures and the surplus is the UK's first in a July in 15 years.
Ms Gregory explained that we shouldn't get too carried away as figures for the first few months of the year are based on a "significant amount of forecast data".
She added:
"Some one-off effects distorted the annual comparison in July, as self-assessment receipts were boosted by the July 31st deadline falling on a Monday this year, but Sunday in 2016, meaning that some receipts were recorded in August last year.
"What's more, cumulative borrowing in the first four months of the fiscal year at £22.8bn was still some 9% higher than the £20.9bn seen last year, with the OBR expecting a further deterioration later in the fiscal year.
"As such, despite July's strength the Chancellor may still find that he has little scope for any easing back on the planned fiscal squeeze in his November Budget.
Public sector borrowing key takeaways

- Public sector net borrowing recorded a £0.2bn surplus in July, the first July surplus since 2002.
- July's surplus was much better than the £1bn deficit forecast.
- Borrowing increased by £1.9bn to £22.8bn in the current financial year to date (April-July), when compared with the same period in 2016.
- The Office for Budget Responsibility forecast that borrowing will reach £58.3bn for the financial year ending March 2018.

Public sector borrowing recorded a surplus of £0.2bn in July, its first July surplus since 2002. Reaction on the currency markets has been limited, however, the pound rising slightly to £1.2958, a 0.4pc fall for the session.
BHP Billiton board bow to activist investor pressure
Mining heavweights Antofagasta and BHP Billiton are pulling up the FTSE 100 most this morning after reporting their latest figures to the market.
Chilean copper miner Antofagasta has jumped 4.5pc in early trading after reporting that revenues have enjoyed a 42pc increase while BHP Billiton has popped 3.6pc after swinging back to a profit.
The dual-listed miner also said that it will sell its US shale portfolio, a key demand of activist investor shareholder Elliott Advisors.
The spin-off will be seen as a "capitulation by the board, which had previously argued that the division formed a core part of the group's operations", said Nicholas Hyett, an analyst at Hargreaves Lansdown.
He added:
"While that volte face may attract headlines, management's strategy elsewhere seems to be going smoothly and delivering results.
"The focus on cost control at BHP's already very low cost assets, means cash generation is soaring now commodity prices have turned. Net debt is tumbling, and as that falls towards more sustainable levels it will free up cash for other uses."
Provident Financial another Woodford pick to plunge in valuation
There were some hints that something of this nature was on the horizon for Provident Financial after its surprise profit warning in June sent shares sliding 18pc but I'm sure even those hedge funds that piled in cash against the company couldn't have foreseen a share price crash quite this large.
It appears that Provident's home credit division is the main issue with the company now expecting the department to record a pre-exceptional loss of between £80m to £120m.
Another interesting sidenote is that this is just the latest of star fund manager Neil Woodford's picks to have plunged of late with AA and AstraZeneca also suffering large drops recently.
Pharma firm AstraZeneca dropped 15pc in one session in July after revealing a setback in its key lung cancer drug trial while roadside rescuer AA plunged 14pc earlier this month following the sacking of chief executive Bob Mackenzie for a "Clarkson" moment.
It never rains but it pours.

Provident Financial crashes 59pc after warning of a full-year loss
Not much Divine Providence for Provident Financial today...— Jasper Lawler (@jasperlawler) August 22, 2017
It's hard to start any other place but Provident Financial this morning after its incredible share price crash.
The doorstep lender's valuation has been slashed in half in less than an hour after it said that it now expects a full-year loss, it ditched its interim dividend (it also indicated that a full-year dividend was unlikely) and chief executive Peter Crook stepped down.
Hedge funds have been circling Provident waiting for a slip with AQR, Systematica and Lansdowne Partners all holding large short positions in the company. Shorting, or borrowing a company's shares to sell and buy again when they have fallen to pocket the difference, is essentially a bet against a company and that bet has paid off big this morning.

The FTSE 100 has jumped back into positive territory this morning as improving sessions in Asia and the US indicate that the gloomy mood hanging over stock markets appears to have lifted.
Corporate results are lighting up the UK's benchmark index early on with housebuilder Persimmon climbing 2.9pc on a 30pc increase in pre-tax profit in its first half results and dual-listed miner BHP Billiton, which reported at the open in Melbourne last night, rising 1.9pc after making key concessions to its activist investor shareholder Elliott Advisors.
It hasn't been all sunshine on the corporate calendar this morning, however, as at the other end doorstep lender Provident Financial has plummeted an incredible 48pc after forecasting a full-year loss, its chief executive stepped down and it scrapped its dividend.

Mass arrests continue to take place throughout Syria, as protesters continue to defy the odds.
Syrian authorities are holding 2 foreign correspondents now with no word as to their fate: Al-Jazeerah correspondent Dorothy Parvaz (missing since April 29) and French Khaled Sid Mohand (Missing since April 9).
A mass arrest campaign continues to unfold throughout Syria, but especially in Deraa City where the numbers of the detainees are put at over 500 and seem to include many teenagers. The detainees are said to be gathered at the detention center near the old town. Some say that the center used to be a school until the army took over. Though reports of torture and summary executions are impossible to confirm at this stage, they do not seem unlikely knowing what we know about the Assad regime, and about this kind of situations where there is complete lack of accountability and scrutiny can develop. Add sectarian propaganda and the all too real sectarian sentiments to the mix and we have all the makings of a serious tragedy here.
But the world watches on, seemingly indifferent. Deraa continues to be besieged, denied basic services, and food and medical supplies.
There were also arrests in the Damascene suburb of Zabadani that was earlier shelled with artillery fire as well, before security forces conducted house-to-house manhunt. The Damascene suburbs of Tal and Arbeen and the city of Deir Ezzor are also among the communities that witnesses major waves of arrests and detention. Kurdish activists in Qamishly have also been detained, as more and more Kurds continue to join the protests movement and demands for toppling the regime.
Meanwhile, protests took place in many cities and towns across Syria in which protesters called for lifting the siege of Deraa as well as regime fall.
Women staged another silent protest today in Arnous Square, one of the main Damascene Square, a few were reported beaten and arrested, including a female reporter that was recording the event. But the 11 women protesters who were arrested yesterday were released earlier today, and were told to present themselves for trial in 2 weeks, although the charges are unclear.
Finally, these videos that were made in Rastan on April 29 show people interacting in a very friendly manner with army officers in their tanks. The videos were uploaded as proof of claims that were made at that time that the army units surrounding the city have promised to protect the protesters, rather than crackdown. Is this another major case of defection? Still, Rastan did witness violence perpetrated by security forces as the third video shows.
Today's Videos
Damascus / Arnous Square: a silent protest by women activists in support of lifting the siege of Deraa. The protest took place in Arnous Square in the central parts of Damascus. A few reported beaten and arrested.
Damascus / Saqba: a night-time protest calling for lifting the siege of Deraa.
Damascus / Midan: a nighttime protest.
Damascus / Mouaddamiyyeh: even as their own city is itself under siege, residents of this Damascene suburb show their support of Deraa by writing her name with candles.
Banyas: protester write "Down with the Regime" using candles.
Homs / Bab Dreib
Homs / Bab Al-Sibaa
Homs / Mreijeh
Deraa / Namar: a women protest
Damascus / Harasta: During an interview with Dounia TV (owned by Rami Makhlouf, bashar,s cousin) protester declares his love for Bashar, but blames violence on security officers, and demands that Bashar stops the violence, or the day will come when protesters will trample the security forces under their feet. Unsurprisingly, the interview was never aired by Dounia TV.

That's what Shi'ite leaders are saying about Abu Musab Al Zarqawi's terror campaign against Shi'ites.
BAGHDAD: Shi'ite political leader Abdel Aziz Al Hakim lashed out yesterday at Abu Musab Al Zarqawi's Islamic militants and Saddam Hussein loyalists after a car bombing of a mosque in Baghdad, which he said was aimed at sparking civil war.The terrorist scum have even taken to performing semi-public beheadings. More details on that at The Jawa Report.
"It is quite obvious why there is such an attack. They are trying to create sectarian strife," Hakim said, after at least 15 people died and 39 were wounded when the car bomb exploded outside the Shi'ite mosque.
Hakim was referring to two main factions of the insurgency, Zarqawi's Al Qaeda faction and the followers of Saddam's regime.
The frontrunner in the January 30 elections said the two camps had since 2003 carried out high-profile attacks on Iraq's Shi'ite majority, now poised to rule Iraq, with the goal of instigating sectarian strife.
"Over the last period, they have worked toward achieving this criminal goal. They have killed the late Ayatollah Sayed Mohammed Baqr Al Hakim. They have killed Governing Council members Ezzedine Salim and Akila Hashemi. All these attempts were trying to divide and create strife among the people of Iraq. They did not succeed."
Update: Capitan Ed notes another rumor of an Al-Zarqawi capture.

Seriously, though, if we could find a dog that took up the same footprint as Paco but was a different solid color that would be perfect.

Melissa Leo portrayed "Emma Shannon" on 'The Young Riders,' during the first season of the show. Melissa's talent and ability to play a believable western woman were easy to see. A young woman herself, she became nurse, mother, housekeeper, and friend to an unruly bunch of Pony Express riders.
Emma's relationship to Sweetwater's Marshal was a little more difficult to fathom. The two shared a spark of something deeper than mere attraction and it was soon evident that the fiesty woman would stand beside him through thick and thin and he, well, he worried about her more and more as he fell in love with her.
For 22 episodes, Melissa Leo was the heart of "The Young Riders."

This plage last updated January 2014.
These are fiction I've written about the NBC show Heroes. The fics listed below will center around Claire Bennet. They may be 'shippy or gen fics, but Claire will always be involved.
Most of these stories will be written for the 50timesimetyou LJ community challenge. The table is located at the bottom of this page as well as on my LiveJournal and here on my site with my other challenge tables. I'll link each story in the table.
If you'd like to be updated when this page, or any of my fan fiction pages, are updated, please subscribe to my Yahoo Announcement Only Groups. I send out announcements on Sundays only when I've added new fics to my site. My member list is hidden so no one but me has access to your name or email address. If I'm in a creative spurt and you must know the moment I've updated a fic you can check my LiveJournal where I will post updates as I do them. The LiveJournal in no way replaces my Yahoo Group, I just don't want to bombard email boxes during those weeks I'm particularly busy. You can also go to my Fic Updates Page right here on my site and get all my updates in one place regardless of fandom.
I also have Heroes fan fiction links and Heroes related links for your surfing pleasure. There's also a Claire Bennet/The Haitian approved FanListing here.
Homework Was Never Quite Like This
Claire has a Western Civilization professor who seems more interested in her than he should be and it's not very unsettling or creepy to her much to her dismay. General Heroes spoilers, though this is AU after Season 2. This is a Claire/Adam fic.
The Light and the Heat
Claire feels like she's being watched and is unprepared for the things she feels and what is revealed when she finally sees who it is. This is a Claire/Adam fic with definite spoilers through Four Months Ago (2x08). Spoilers for future episodes as more information about Adam is revealed may be involved.
The Nick of Time
A Heroes/Slither crossover. Claire has taken a job in the small town of Wheelsy in an attempt to stay under The Company's radar. This is actually set a bit in the future as far as Heroes goes. Claire's managed to finish college. The events of Slither, on the other hand, happened recently in this story. This is a Claire Bennet/Bill Pardy fic.
Mending Broken Hearts
A Slither/BtVS/Heroes crossover and sequel to The Nick of Time. Xander Harris has been assigned the task of keeping an eye on Wheelsy to be sure the disturbance that showed up on the Watcher's Council radar continues to be contained. This is a Kylie Strutemyer/Xander Harris fic with some Claire Bennet/Bill Pardy, too.
Someone might just be in contention of landing the white whale the women in Manhattan are competing over. This is a crossover with ABC's Castle. General spoilers for both shows, though it's AU.

Triple H: Donald Trump Confused as to Whether Wrestling Is Real (Video)
What's the difference between President-Elect Donald Trump and a typical 13-year-old WWE fan? A typical 13-year-old WWE fan realizes wrestling isn't real.
On Thursday, a clip of an old episode of the Opie and Anthony Show started recirculating online. In that clip Triple H—the professional wrestler-turned McMahon in-law-turned Executive Vice President of Talent, Live Events, and Creative for WWE—talked about a storyline from 2007 in which Vince McMahon supposedly died in a limo explosion, and how tons of people, including President-Elect Trump, called McMahon's office the next day to see if he was really dead.
I'm serious. And apparently so was Trump. Take a look:
Now don't get me wrong, the WWE does a tremendous, tremendous job of making their stunts and feuds look absolutely real. However, as you may know, Donald Trump has dabbled a bit in professional wrestling. So he of all people really should have known that Vince McMahon was probably not killed in a limo explosion.
If you're curious, here's the clip of McMahon gittin' blowed up:
Buckle up everybody, it's going to be an interesting four years.

Specialities: Mixed meat pates, cheeses (lots), Cotignac (quince)
Everyone fit and well rested after an evening out in Beaugency. No incidents in the night (that we know about). Breakfasting in hostel (with addition of Thursday Cottage Marmalade, marmite and bananas). Sky bit grey but the trees in the courtyard are quite still – we hope the headwinds have changed to backwinds. Need to spend a few minutes to absorb this cobbled street city before we cross the low, many arched bridge over The Loire.
A very gradual ascent today (flat) along the Sauldre, a tributary of The Loire. Speeding through pretty villages – Vaiilly sur Sauldre, Isdes to arrive at our Chateau at Assigny…well the farm buildings!

MERIDEN — When Phillip Haywood was charged this week with failing to register with local police as a sexual offender, it was the first publicized arrest in Connecticut under Megan's Law.
Unfortunately, police discovered Haywood's failure to register after he raped an 11-year-old girl.
The case points out the extraordinary difficulty police say they have in enforcing the statute. It also adds urgency to plans to strengthen the law this fall.

I let go, I let go of the memories, I let go of trying to find answers, I let go of trying to fix what I thought was missing. I let go of the need to sit and brood over my incapability and that was when I found you.
With you came calmness of the mind and body… of the soul. Calmness that clearly differentiates itself from quietness. It is from within and in its totality takes you far away from anxiety, anger, disturbance and worry.
One breath at a time; long calm and peaceful breathes each with contentment born not out of lack of challenges but out of knowledge and total trust that it all works out the right way.
Serenity that can only be achieved from solitude giving you a chance to connect with self, knowing that what is within is only yours to reach and control. Serenity born out of understanding and appreciation of every unique trait present, oblivious of the world's definition and acceptance.
The state of mind of peace, the state of mind I cherish, so difficult to achieve yet easy to lose to a chaotic state. One day you came when I wasn't trying to find you. You came when I lost control and allowed nothing to hold me back. You came when I decided to do my bit and let go of the pressure to have it all at once. I finally achieved this state of mind that comes with a change in our perception of life's challenges and brings a change in our perception of everything else.
This state of mind of contentment, serenity and calmness is a state of perfection where peace, self-love and satisfaction abounds so that with each breath comes more peace even in the face of challenges… oh solace, my state of humanly perfection, I found you and I'm never letting go.
